What's the difference between the words:?

Question

Everyone and Everybody
Anyone and Anybody

Thanks.

Answer 1

everybody: every person, anyone, either
everyone:every person, anyone, either
anyone: pronoun: any person, either
anybody: pronoun: any person, either

anyone, anybody, everyone, everybody:
these words are all collective pronouns using a singular verb. However, in current usage, in order to avoid gender-specific, references, it is becoming increasingly more acceptable to use the plural their opposed to his or her. Note that the two word forms of these words every-one, any-one, etc. imply each person or object of the group individually, rather than referring to the whole group collectively.
I hope this explanation is helpful to you. Good luck and God bless

Answer 2

here is a link with some discussion on the words:

http://www.drgrammar.org/faqs/#108

and here is an excerpt I chose to copy and paste:

Everybody and everyone?
Everybody and everyone are interchangeable.
Anyone and anybody are also interchangeable.

Everyone/everybody is/are happy?
"What's wrong with saying, Are everybody happy? After all, when you use the word everybody, you're thinking of a crowd, right? Then why do we say, Is everybody happy? instead of Are everybody happy? In other words, just how many people do we mean when we say everybody or everyone?
The answer is one. Odd as it may seem, these pronouns are singular. We often use them when talking about whole gangs of people, but we treat them grammatically as individual gang members. The result is that each takes a singular verb: Everybody loves a lover, but not everybody is one" (O'Conner, Patricia. Woe is I 15).

Answer 3

Not clear whether you're asking what the difference is between Everyone and Everybody, and then, in a separate but related question, what the difference is between Anyone and Anybody; or whether, conversely, what the difference is between Everyone and Everybody, collectively, and Anyone and Anybody, collectively.

So I'll answer both ways.

I'd say that there is no practical difference between Everyone and Everybody. Similarly, I'd say that there is no practical difference between Anyone and Anybody.

If, however, the question is what the difference is between Everyone and Anyone, or between Everybody and Anybody, I guess I'd say that Everyone focuses on all, as a group, and Anyone includes all, as a group, but focuses on each one, individually. Same answer, mutatis mutandis, regarding the difference between Everybody and Anybody.

Answer 4

The dictionary says...........

Everyone:
Definition - Every person, whether of a defined group or in general

Everybody:
Definition - Same as everyone

Anyone:
Definition - 1. every person: any or every person who could be named or thought of
2. even one person: used to emphasize the unlikelihood of finding even one person to match a description or criteria
3. unimportant person: an unimportant and unknown person

Anyone is somewhat more common than anybody (which has the same meaning). Anyone and anybody are used only of human beings after a negative or a question

Anybody:
Definition - Same as anyone
...................................


Therefore I have concluded they have the same meaning but different spellings.

Answer 5

the difference is that the words are not spelled the same.

Answer 6

skys isnt an actual word and skies is. Thats the difference

Answer 7

I don't think there is a difference so to speak. I think the difference is in it's usage.
